    eventually a 20r/22r motor, with the w58 transmission would be amazing.....its running bone stock, down to the original emission setup...still though she runs like a scalded dog :)

    Cool truck man!

    W58 and a 22R hybrid? Dont forget the rear end gears...Do you know what your R&P ratio is?

    thanks man :) honestly, i'd rather keep my stock engine setup and just do the trans, my engine has plenty of power for me...if the gears were taller i think it'd be perfect. the rear end is the one from the factory?
